FAQ
Q: Should I replace my lock instead of repairing it?
A: A good sign that you should replace your lock is if it’s no longer functioning correctly. In some cases, lock repair is the best option. However, an old locking system that’s not operating as it should need replacement. But if you have a relatively new lock, repairing it might be a good option. Replacing the lock entails removing the current hardware and replacing it with a new one. But if you repair the lock, you don’t install new hardware. Our technicians will assess your locking system to determine whether you should repair or replace it. They will also share their reasons for recommending lock repair or lock replacement.
Q: How do I know if it’s time to replace my lock?
A: There are signs you should look for to determine if it’s time to replace your locks. For instance, if somebody broke into your house or apartment recently, you should replace your locks. That’s because it means you have a compromised or easy to compromise locking system. Additionally, you should replace your lock if it’s too old. That’s because tear and wear can weaken your locking system. What’s more, you should replace your lock if you’ve just moved into a new house since you don’t know who else might have the keys to your new home. It’s also a good idea to change locks if somebody stole or you lost your keys. That way, nobody can use the keys to access your house.
Q: How long does it take a locksmith to change locks?
A: The duration a locksmith takes to replace a lock varies depending on the door style and lock type. For instance, a locksmith can take 2-5 minutes to change a standard cylinder. A latch lock can take 10-30 minutes. Replacing the complete locking mechanism can take 30 to 60 minutes. However, most locksmiths will take an hour to replace most locks. The skills, experience, and tools that a technician uses influence the time they take to change a lock. Again, the job’s time will depend on the number of locks you have in your house, door style, and lock type you want to install.
Q: If I want to replace my deadbolt lock with a smart door lock, do I need to change the door?
A: No. You only remove the mounting plate of the old lock and the old cylinder. However, you need professional assistance to insert a new deadbolt into your door and check whether its D-shaped hole aligns with the door hole’s center. Also, installing a keypad, mounting, and lining up the internal assembly requires expertise. Call Locksmith Yonkers NY, for consultation or to schedule your lock change appointment. Our technicians will come over at any time to assess your door and recommend the best way to replace your deadbolt lock with a smart door lock.
Q: I want to replace a front door lock with a high-security lock. Which lock will fit on my door?
A: The front door is arguably the first defense line for your home. As such, you want to be sure that you have the best high-security lock for the front door. The current market has many high-security lock brands from which to choose. Therefore, take your time to study all the available high-security lock brands to make an informed choice.
